Aah yes...The tupper ware wars...
The last 5 year or so it seems the plastic bins come to point, not even within a year, wherein they become really brittle and the polymer is so stiff it chips and cracks really easily and quickly becomes useless and ready for the trash bin.
The point wasn't that the plastic the bins are made of is the same as the plastic the guns are made of. The point is that polymers are so fine-tuned these days that they can make a polymer that's strong at the outset that will consistently degrade beyond a specific time-frame.Comparing plastic trash bins with polymer pistols? Seriously? I guess you can't see the difference between different types of "plastic" as you call it.
Wow.
Buy Springfield, they have a life time guaranty. If 15 0r 20 years down road the polymer becomes brittle or cracked (during normal use, not run over by truck), they will replace gun or parts that hat have worn out. I don't anyone else that has this policy.

A Remington Nylon 66 is called a Nylon 66 for a reason. Nylon isn't plastic. Don't take the SOB apart either. They're a nightmare to get back together properly.
Exactamundo!I've never heard of a VP70 frame failure, so I think everything will be ok.
The key with things like bins (or any product to a certain degree) is the factory needs to sell more product to make a profit. Have you ever heard the phrase "planned obsolescence"? In my business we count on the fact that nothing lasts forever.
I too have a Remington nylon 66. Guess what? The stock cracked completely in two right across the grip. No warranty, no parts, just a nice little rifle that is now basically junk. It's still in one piece as the mag tube keeps the stock from falling off.
